Product description
El Nasr Pink Granite comes from Egypt’s Eastern Desert, a region renowned for producing granites of exceptional durability and unique beauty. Its distinctive salmon-pink hue, with subtle gray and black veins and crystals, makes it a versatile choice for residential and commercial projects seeking natural warmth without sacrificing technical strength. Its igneous mineralogy of quartz, feldspar, and mica gives it a medium-to-fine-grained crystalline structure that reflects light evenly, making it ideal for both high-gloss polished finishes and rough textures in outdoor settings.
This Egyptian granite is ideal for high-traffic flooring in commercial lobbies, shopping centers, airports, and public spaces where wear resistance is critical. It also excels in interior and exterior wall cladding, staircases, pool edges, and architectural landscaping. Its low water absorption and frost resistance make it suitable for cold and humid climates, while its UV stability ensures that the color remains unchanged under prolonged sun exposure.
Available in seven distinct finishes—from the classic mirror polish to slip-resistant options such as flamed, bush-hammered, and sandblasted—Rosa El Nasr adapts to specific functional requirements. The textured finishes offer R11-R12 slip resistance ratings, meeting standards for outdoor wet areas and pool edges. The matte and brushed finishes balance contemporary aesthetics with safety in indoor spaces with moderate foot traffic.
With a Mohs hardness of 6 to 7 and a compressive strength exceeding 228 MPa, Rosa El Nasr withstands demanding structural loads without compromising its integrity. Its bulk density of 2,639 kg/m³ and high chemical resistance position it as a lasting investment for top-tier architectural projects that require premium materials with proven technical performance and a timeless visual presence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you buy
No. The color of granite comes from mineral pigmentation in its crystalline structure, being highly stable to UV rays and does not fade with sun exposure or rain.
In interior and exterior flooring, wall coverings, stairs, pool edges (with rough finish), high traffic commercial spaces and architectural landscaping.
Use pH neutral stone cleaners. Polished finish requires crystallizer every 12-18 months. All finishes should be sealed with penetrating impregnator every 12-24 months depending on porosity.
It is not mandatory but highly recommended. With absorption of only 0.15%, granite is low porosity, but rough unsealed finishes can accumulate oils and stains over time.
Yes, it is frost resistant according to EN 12371 due to its water absorption of only 0.15%, which prevents damage from freeze-thaw cycles.
Yes, with Mohs hardness 6-7 and Ha hardness of 45.2, it withstands the most intense traffic in lobbies, airports and shopping malls without significant wear.
Approximately 47.5 kg/m² in 1.8 cm thickness, 52.8 kg/m² in 2 cm and 79.2 kg/m² in 3 cm. Verify structural capacity before installation.
Flexible mortar C2TE S1 or S2 (classification EN 12004). For large formats (≥40×60 cm) and humid areas, use S2 with double-gluing method.
Yes, with rough finishes (flamed, bush-hammered, sandblasted) R11 classification minimum. Polished finish is prohibited in wet areas due to risk of falling.
From the Eastern Desert of Egypt, a region renowned for high quality granite quarries with unique igneous mineralogy and exceptional durability.
